Have Idea, Need Help

Submitted by nekiruhs on February 1, 2007 - 6:13pm

Hi, for those of us at school, interruptions can be a real pain. I have a novel idea that could fix this. I think a program that enables you to take a screen shot when you are being productive, and then press a key later to display the screen shot, hiding whatever you were doing. I am willing to help with any coding if necessary.

JDK, Dev-C++

I don't have a home computer, so I have to rely on the computers at the library. They don't have compilers or IDEs and you can't install anything on them. When I first saw Portable Apps, I got excited because I could get around the security and run the apps from my 40GB USB hard drive without leaving anything on the computer. I can now use Fire Fox to surf the net, and GAIM to talk to my friends online, but you guys don't seem to have much for software development. Is there any way you can package either Dev-C++

GMail Drive

I've got another one which would make a great app to use with this, if it's at all possible, http://www.viksoe.dk/code/gmail.htm GMail Drive, would make a sweet addition to the PortableApps collection as well. It seems there are like 4 files and a few calls to the registry, but it looks like it should be possible to make it portable using the /Data/Registry folder to hold that information in.

Additional Folders

This isn't so much a requested app - rather a suggestion.

Would it be possible for there to be additional folders added to the launch menu on the right hand side? Or maybe even edit the ones that are there?

For example, I doubt that I'm ever going to need to put any music or videos on my pen drive - but I will be putting PDF books on it, as well as work for assignments at university.

So what I'd prefer to do is remove the quick links to 'music' and 'videos', and replace them with 'books' and 'university'.
